any screenshots of it?

[Baz_kasp]

I think the "duke nukem forever" jokes will finally be laid to rest ;)

It's been a while... but it should prove interesting to see the general reaction to this suite-newcomer to the lineup.

And yes, this is V5 for the suite+standalone AV, as demonstrated by the images in the estore (e.g. http://www.av-desk.com/static/new-www/50_ss_en.png )


edit: although the Russian homepage still displays "Dr web version 5 beta"

[The Hammer]

-{ Quote: "any screenshots of it?" }-Nothing in the screen shots thread. C.S.J. we're waiting.;D

[firzen771]

this isnt really a typical internet security suite though, there's no firewall which is typically in the suites and http scanning is normally included in the AV only as well.

Man, the GUI is still the same ol Dr web

[Baz_kasp]

Hopefully a slightly better translation than google could manage by yours truly:

-{ Quote: "Company <<Doctor Web>> - Russian developer of information security products under the brand Dr.Web- announces the release of the new version of "Dr. Web for Windows 5.0"

The release of the new version for the company, which is significant with the change of the version number- is always a big step forward in development - says the author of the Dr.Web antivirus, Technical Director of the company <<Dr. Web>> Igor Daniloff. Given the magnitude and complexity of modern threats, we have targetted our efforts on the newest protection technologies, which let us not only effectively defend against known viruses, but also be ready to protect users against new, unknown damaging programs (threats).
Across the whole row of technological indicators , the new version of Dr. Web does not yet have a contender to match it in the antivirus industry.


New technologies and improvements of Version 5.0


Cures that, which others cannot even see!

The possibility to cure active inefctions, defense against viruses, unique technologies for the processing of objects in memory, and an excellent ability to neutralise active infections, gives Dr. Web the ability to install on an infected PC that would otherwise be seen as a "lost cause" - was and still is a main advantage of Dr. Web, with anybody yet to better the technological advantages of Dr. Web. A shining exmaple of this- the ability of Dr. Web to disinfect complex viruses, like MaosBoot, Rustock.C, Sector. Technologies, enabling Dr. Web to effectively fight with active viruses and not only detect "clinical collections" has received in this new version a further update.

Reliable immunity.

Self defense and reliablility to attacks has been realised in Dr. Web for Windows 5.0 on the highest level. In the self defense module Dr.Web SelfPROtect, is a total control of access and changes to files, processes, windows and registry keys of the program. The module itself installs itself in the system as a driver, and unloading or unauthorised termination of its working is not possible until reboot of the system.

The fight <to advance>

Effectiveness of the detection of a modern antivirus is not only shown by the number of records in it's virus database (e.g. the number of known threats - but also the technologies, which enable the program to fight with as of yet unknown threats, and even with as of yet non existent viruses. In version 5.0 is realised a new technology of univeral unpacking FLY-CODE, which enables the detection of viruses, scripts packed with packers unknown to Dr. Web, based on specialised signatures in the virus database of Dr.Web and heuristic routines of the Dr. Web scanning module of possible presence of a dangerous object in the archive.

To confront unknown threats a unique non-signature based Origins Tracing (tm) scanning also receieved an update. The current creation has already proven it's high effectiveness during epidemics, during which a large number users protected by other products where negatively affected. Origins Tracing (tm) complements traditional signature based scanning and heuristic analyer of Dr. Web and enhances the detection of previously unknown malware.

Effective countermeasures to rootkit-technology

Dr.Web for windows- one of the small number of cutting edge products, capable of not only detecting, but also effectively neutralising viruses, which utilise rootkit-technology.
An objective illustration of this- widespread use of the free treating utility "Dr.Web CureIt! (R) by users of other antivirus solutions for curing their computers of rootkits which had breached their computers. In version 5.0 a new version of the Dr. Web Shield (TM) driver has been realised, which allows the program to fight even with rootkit technologies of the future.

A look into the depth

The ability of the antivirus engine to unpack archives and the depth of scanning of archived objects noticeably influences on the quality of detection. Dr.Web is capable of fully checking archives at any nesting level. In this way, even if a malicious object is archived many times, and uses different types of supported archivers, Dr.Web will always find and neutralise the threat. In addition to this, support for tens of new packers and a line of improvments during working with packed files, including also files packed many times and even packed with different packers.

Improved speed


Always light and manouverable, Dr. Web for Windows version 5.0 has got even faster. New and optimised technologies have significantly improved the scanning process. Thanks to the fast acting antivirus engine, Dr.Web scanner is up to 30% faster than the previous version when checking memory, boot secotrs, contents of hard drives and removable drives.


<Features section, already translated by Dr.Web>

Today, releasing the new version onto the market, we offer 2 new products: The classic of the antivirus industry- Dr.Web Antivirus for Windows, and new complex product for protection against internet-threats- Dr.Web Security Space, commentates general director of <<Doctor Web>> Boris Sharov. We hope that the efforts of our developers will be appreciated by all who value information security and care about protecting their details- All of this Dr.Web has been providing it's users since 1992." }-

How do I download the demo.:-\

[Baz_kasp]

Link post #13 ...click and then "30 day demo" at the top of the screen.

[djohn]

I did that then 30 day demo and I get this.

[Macstorm]

Links to demo versions aren't working ATM.

[The Hammer]

-{ Quote: "Man, the GUI is still the same ol Dr web" }-I think C.S.J. said changes will be forth coming.

[risl]

I updated to the v5 of the antivirus only. Running silk smooth, scanning a bit faster but have some false detections. It suggests that some EXECryptor packed files are "Probably Trojan.Packed.xxx" and some older threatfire installer contains "Probably BATCH.Virus"

It seems to me that the v5 is has extremely aggressive heuristics, probably the FLY-CODE thingy.

[icr]

-{ Quote: "I did that then 30 day demo and I get this." }-

Mine works correctly

[lodore]

Hey,
I didnt expect it to be out so soon.
shame new gui isnt released with it but protection is more important.
Im gonna test it later today.

thought i would try cure it but it bluescreened my older pc running XP.
that didnt happern last time i used it.

[djohn]

Yes link works now but appreantly I can't demo it because I demo in the past V4.

It's not beta anymore, so this release should be just fine. I've reported the slowdown several times and nothing happened with it. It's a shame and didn't expect this from Dr. Web.

[risl]

I scanned some malware collection that I have and it does seem to detect more malware than the previous version. These detections are mainly these "Probably Trojan.Packed.xxx". Perhaps it's the FLY-CODE/Advanced detection they mentioned.

[Paul_E]

Initial install was slow, computer froze a few times, but it was after using the Norton removal tool which was probably the main reason for it. However, removed using Revo uninstaller and reinstalled and it is now working superbly, web pages load quickly etc.

i would have really liked to see the complete suite though with firewall and all included. i just prefer all in one as ling as they actually have a good firewall..

[trjam]

firewalls are fine as long as they work and are easy to understand. Most dont apply to this critria.

[Baz_kasp]

cureit also got an upgrade to v5.

[zfactor]

i would have figured on dr web to have a pretty decent firewall coming from their backround though

[PiCo]

I installed Dr.WEB Antivirus 5 only upon peviously installed Dr.WEB Antivirus 4 on a Vista SP1 machine.

Installation went flawlesly, only thingy it left the old Dr.WEB 4 update task behind and created a new one -I wrote about it in their forum.
Don't know if it's a bug or just happened to me, someone can check it.

Spider remained fat and black, same practical minimalistic GUI, faster smoother scanning, light on resources, self protection on.

What more could a Dr.WEB AV fan ask for?

Too bad I'm not into suites, I'd try the Security Space.

Btw the av only doesnt have the spider gate http scanner.

i tested it on my xp machine today and it bsod.
4.44 never did.
wonder if a conflict with kis or something else.

It works, but it refused to unpack properly if launched via exe...I downloaded it 3 times and attempted to launch it normally and it always errored out. I unpacked it using winrar and manually launched- seems to be working ok.

I think its an installer problem not related to KIS.

thats alright then i assumed it would be since drweb 5 has only just been lanched.

[Firecat]

One thing I will say is that the prices are very darn good and I will give it a full thumbs up for providing a lot of protection at 28 Euros. Apart from that, well, time will tell ;D

[GES/POR]

I dont get it, 64 bit support supposed to be added in the beta yet the final release doesnt

[Arin]

Dr.Web main website (http://www.drweb.com/) reports 490348 records where as Dr.Web Live (http://live.drweb.com/) reports 452,663. I wonder if this has anything to do with version 5 release.

Anyway I have v5 and I don't see 490348 records, I currently have 453115 (latest update).

I think you should schedule the scan from the Windows "Scheduled Tasks."

Yes, good point and quite a step back .........I also wonder why everybody is cutting in all the good things, as I would never buy Security Space, because of some useless modules for me! :thumbd:

[C.S.J]

yep, I've been away.

With work, Christmas and my birthday, it's rather hectic at the moment for me.

[ink]

I have av-desktop installed, but only one component update to v5 yet, I had to say it had some bugs, and I don't like the settings too many clicks away, only good is that free to use and update, charges on service, the configuration you can't make on your client side, av-desktop is the almost the same as safe space

[Arin]

It seems version 5 needs less number of virus records than version 4.44. And now you can't quarantine files unless you manually create a quarantine folder out side Dr.Web folders. And when you click on scanner -> about the version is shows as 5.0.0. (not 5.0.0 or 5.0.0.12182).

[Badcompany]

Hi Risl,
Only have the update scheduler in windows set for every 30 mins.No scheduler for the scanner.

I suspect that's true and certainly possible. Unfortunately, I'm not smart enough to figure out the path to use to schedule a scan.

[C.S.J]

-{ Quote: "Hi Risl,

yeah,

drweb SS is set to perform an update check by default every 30 minutes.

you need to set your own schedule for the scanner using windows own Task Scheduler.

adding the arguments /full or /fast depending on which scan you wish to schedule.

im more curious to see how it works with my Prevx, as the betas gave me constant trouble between both apps.

however, so far.... great :)

you tried un-installing/re-installing?

also, i dont have Parental Control installed, ive found with other AV's that have it, this feature usually slows things down, and seeing as i dont need it, i simply chose not to even install it, without taking any risks, im not saying this could be the issue, it was just something that entered my mind after your post. :)

Delete C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Doctor Web\Bases\drwtoday.vdb You may need to adjust system settings to see this path (Windows Explorer, Tools>Folder Options>View - Select Show hidden files and folders).

For completeness, once the fixed update was posted, the most expedient fix was to boot to safe mode and manually run "C:\Users\All Users\DrWebUpW.exe" to force the update. Naturally, networking needs to be active.

the issue was fixed, almost immediately, an incorrect addon.

if your one of the unlucky ones who's machine BSODs, do as Blue suggested , update and its fixed.

edit: also, the FTP link to the latest installation seems to have been also removed immediatly.

[Honyak]

I have only the AV installed and it crashed today and then would not reboot to windows xp. Fortunately, I made a b/u image before upgrading.
Think I will wait a little longer before upgrading to 5.0

[Big Apple]

Conclusion.......another 'big' AV company releasing too soon and giving a bad taste. Why on earth?
Crashing, freezing.......and that's a final release?

[Blackcat]

Installation was fast, carried out a custom install without SpIDer Mail/Parental Control.

In the last couple of days I have had no problems in running this program. However, on-demand scan speed is still very slow and SpIDer Gate did slightly slow down my dial-up connection. Although the Help-file is still sparse, it is improving.

Very light in real-time again; only 3 processes taking a total of just less than 14 MB RAM on this Vista laptop. Updater seemed even faster and clicking round the GUI was very smooth when compared to some of the past versions. Some initial tests on my malware samples suggested a better, overall detection rate than version 4.

Early days but I think it will be a welcome upgrade for Dr Web users, although it will be interesting as to whether they select this Suite or the standalone AV. Further, how long will it be before they incorporate a firewall into this product?

It has taken time for them to push out version 5 and maybe more beta-testing to a wider audience may have picked up some of the problems that some users have noted here. But whether they have done enough to attract/keep more users is another question.

[risl]

Could it be because they don't limit the nesting level of how deep they're scanning archives? Don't know if this is common with other AV's, just remember Trend having some option to select 1-5 levels or so.

I picked the AV only, still don't see why I should have a HTTP scanner.

[C.S.J]

well, its SS for me.

the http works perfectly, no notice of any slowdowns on my broadband. :)

-{ Quote: "Could it be because they don't limit the nesting level of how deep they're scanning archives? Don't know if this is common with other AV's, just remember Trend having some option to select 1-5 levels or so. " }-
But this is seen even when I de-select archives scanning.

I know that there is the Express scan but I was hoping for an improvement in Complete/Custom Scan speed with the new version.

[krokodil_bb]

-{ Quote: "Very light in real-time again; only 3 processes taking a total of just less than 14 MB RAM on this Vista laptop.
" }-

Not possible, only scanning engine service consumes more than 30MB (if not scanning) and if I run scanner it need more than 90MB. For scanning archives it not using temp files, but using virtual memory so for scanning 100MB rar archive it need plus 270MB (unpacked size) of RAM/swapfile.

Released version looks like intermediate alpha/beta software, there is a big delay in spidergate http scanner (scanning is not transparent) and spider never worked (bsod) on my computer. And quarantine ???

[virtumonde]

I installed Dr web antivirus only.On my pc it works as it should.
No Cpu spikes even during normal activities for me(browsing,watching movies etc),the on demand scan takes 50%,which i find it acceptable and i don't like/use on demand scans anyway.the updater works.I don't get it why spider mail uses the most of Ram!!! I have the program running for half a day now .
Since many report trouble i'll still wait a new build for final switch at least on one of the pc's.
Btw are they planning for a gui?

[Arin]

Got my first BSoD with XP courtesy Dr.Web. Everytime I restarted my PC it restarted again before the ctrl + alt + del screen. Eventlog said it was Dr.Web. Anyway a fresh installation was long due so I overhauled the system. Maybe I'll give it a try after some time when there is a minor version upgrade.

when was this?

there was an error yesterday around 7pm GMT time, with an update of an addon which created this BSOD for some users, but it was fixed very quickly and if your drweb is fully updated, this should not be happening.

do you have a .dmp file?

[PiCo]

I had that BSOD too, about 21:00 in Greece. PAGE_FAULT and bla bla..

Anyway since i had a format planned these days and I had free time, I didn't bother with instructions provided in this thread.
I wiped the drive with KillDisk (http://www.killdisk.com/) and installed brand new OS.

I also see no issues under my normal usage conditions, however I can create conflict on demand that will either bring my system to its knees or BSOD by starting a MojoPac session. I assume that it's a conflict between the MojoPac virtualization driver and DrWeb's new self protection scheme, but that's just a casual guess on my part at this point. I'll let the developers at Dr Web sort the details of this one out...

Unfortunately this just doesn't seem complete, some features like the notification balloons if file is infected/cleaned don't work at all. There is too much of the 4.44 GUI left: scanner, spider guard settings/control and virus alerts for example.

Why do they bother mentioning about control panels or new gui when they only added a few icons and merged the tray icons? This is just an engine update with self-protection and few minor GUI modifications.

And where are the HIPS, firewall, etc. what was supposed to be in the "full suite" that is currently only an AV with HTTP-scanning and parental control. Even security space doesn't have a real "control panel".

I don't use the suite but I'm annoyed by the fact that Dr.Web had a lot of time on this, but they still didn't bother to make a proper GUI for it. Do they have a fetish regarding messy win95 looking icons and anti-ergonomic placing of buttons and tickboxes.

[C.S.J]

This isn't a suite, where did people get this idea from?

It's an updated version, nothing else.

One that adds greater detection, greater removal, http scanner, self protection and parental control.

Is there more to come? ... Sure.

Does anyone know when? ... Doubtfull

People should look at it no differently that a product update, one that adds some new features.

[Bunkhouse Buck]

As a long time Dr. Web user, I decided to take a pass on this one. BSOD and it made my system unbootable and had to restore with Acronis. A huge :thumbd: for me.

[trjam]

I stand corrected and no where does it say suite. Look folks, we cried for so long about them not moving forward and now they have. A few bugs, yes, but every other product when released does. So I think we should remain positive and supportive. As far as GUIs, protection or gloss is more important.

Anyone else having issues with network shares/Samba after installing Dr. Web 5?

I have a Network Media Tank (Pop Corn Hour) hooked up to my network which I use to stream media from my PC to my tv. After installing Dr. Web 5, my Pop Corn Hour was no longer able to access my PC over Samba. I did the usual trouble shooting and finally uninstalled Dr. Web 5 and my Pop Corn Hour was able to access my PC again. The only other security apps I have running are SuperAntiSpyware and a firewall software. I tried disabling both and still have the problem. Removing Dr. Web 5 fixed the issue.

Anyone have any ideas on what the issue is? Any suggestions on a work around? I've reinstalled Dr. Web 4.44 until I can get this issue resolved.

Yes, it was a sad case. Base have badly tested before it's release. In a Russian-speaking segment regrets have been made.

im having no problems with the new version.... 'touch wood' ;D

glad really, as it would have peed me off a little with all the alphas,betas i 'tried to try', even though each one was very different from the previous. lol :argh:

[pugmug]

Seem's more than a few with problems.As I do not care to screw up any of my computers with this crap,could someone run Cureit to see if it can fix Dr Eeb?Or did they screw that program also?LOL!

[C.S.J]

i know there is an incompatibility issue with some other programs, but this isnt a fault with the software, just incompatibilties, loads of AV's have incompatibility problems with other softwares,

its just not meant to be used with other software as much as the previous version, guessing mainly due to drwebs new self protection.

i couldnt run the beta at all due to a total lockdown, slowness, BSOD's, freezing of my computer, sound familiar? (this aint a lie)


now it plays nice with Prevx, so everything is how it should be, fast and very very stable.

ive already been told of an incompatibility with SAS, but there could be more.

if all you have is Drweb installed, then i suggest you contact support, as everything is fine on my rig.

[pugmug]

do you have SAS installed (or something similar maybe?), i can already see at least 2 people complaining of problems using it, its currently incompatible (at least, so im told.), so it should not be used with drweb.

Yes to both your reading and SAS questions.Now I have a question for you.How much does Dr Eeb pay it's beta or release testers?If it's alot I might dig out a Commodore 64 to test this junk program with.On second thought,no,I wouldn't want to mess up a high class computer with that crap.

Well, I would never have thought this would have happened, but I am now very distgusted with DRWEB. It hosed my computer completely. I can't uninstall the old version and I can't install the new version. Every time I try to install I get a lame error message that states "error 1304. Error writing to file c:\program files\Drweb\Spidergate.exe. Verify you have access to that directory." Is anybody out there familiar with this error message. This is really upsetting me. Thanks.

it's running fine here, so why would I admit problems that don't exist.

At first it was the addin thing, which has nothing to do with V5, regardless of what you may think.

Secondly, it was computers freezing up, these are incompatibilites with other softwares, I've experienced this for myself before the release.

So tell me, what else is there?

Http scanner slowing browsing, don't think so.

what else can you think of. :))

Just because it's running ok on your system, stop neglecting complaints by others. Grow up man! Version 4 never gave me any problems whatsoever combined with any piece of software, so why would version 5 do that? To me it proves, they never tested it properly, compared to v.4. One of the big advantages of Dr. Web, never any compatibility problem, goes down the drain.

Let them work on it and release a few patches, I believe you can truely see how it works after a few months of bug reports and released updates. Remember that v4 didn't have the self-protection driver and majority of the conflicts are probably caused by other software attempting to interfere with Dr.Web files or processes, which is typical for security programs. I believe it only needs a bit of fine tuning and that's all. People judge it already, make quick conclusions and over react because of few after-release errors and a few complaints.

It isn't wise to compare v4 testing vs. v5 testing since v4 structure of the program had remained same for many years.. probably ten years(except for spider shield driver)but now it's changed and the new version has only been here for a month or so. It is also impossible to test the software against all the millions of different software combinations, operating system settings, modifications, etc. Problems will appear even if you test it thoroughly.

I hope that people would be more patient and just let the program mature a bit. If they are unable to fix these issues, then decide if it's "crap" or "down the drain." :)

Can't stand the party feeling when there's a new release of a piece of software, that's been waited for a very long time. Eevery week there was a childish remark regarding the probable release date, placing bets etc.Remember? Now it's here......and not functioning the way it should be..........those party people still shout that it is ok. After such a long time before release, it should be a hell of a lot better than it is now!

[zfactor]

oh ill be testing this again but ill wait a few releases till more of the bugs are worked out its just to unstable for me i cant even boot to vista with it i get welcome them bsod.. reboot.. this is one i was waiting for to try and hopefully they will get the next release right

[C.S.J]

off topic remark removed

The majority of the feedback for v5 has been very positive.

The fact that a few wilderers are having problems, makes the software a problem? .... Don't think so.

And other than the total freeze downs and the bsod problem (incompatibiltys + a staff mistake in an addon)

Other than that, I see a user complaining about install/uninstall, so where are all these complaints regarding v5, I fail to see them.

The fact that wilderers are seeing the incompatibilty slow down, is the fact that the majority on here install tons of security apps, it only takes a look at someones signature to see that.

Wilders people do not equate to the general customers of drweb, or ANY antivirus.

Also the majority of incompatibilty problems, I guess are mainly due to the new self protection, which they know is excellent, and I'm sure very proud of, so why should they even change it?

... On a side note, you never even liked 4.44, so don't go lying there by throwing that little comment in to your post.... And you don't like this version either, (as even you expected), easily fixed, its simple, don't use it.

end of....

you dont like it, fine.

Indeed, first software releases can never be perfect, but unfortunately the issues that have surrounded this release go beyond the normal set of issues encountered during a new product release - some people have had "showstopper" bugs with the product. I'm not saying that the product is bad due to this, but a lot of users do not appreciate the time taken to resolve such issues (well, people have busy lives you know :)).....Still, I have seen worse releases so I will not go down too hard on Dr.Web, however I do wish they had implemented the new Control Center/GUI before releasing this. It wouldn't have hurt to release the product in January with a completed UI.....

First of all, I'd like to apologize to everybody who experienced any issues related to this release. There are issues and they are being investigated and fixed. We are maintaining the open bug tracking system at http://bugs.drweb.com, where you may reports and track bugs.

This release is a really big update to the product. Given a huge number of changes and introduction of new modules, its virtually impossible to catch all bugs before release. This is why some features were promised but not yet released. We decided to ship improved scanning engine and resident protection, http scanner, parental control, self-protection -- that is to say, more security. The GUI part is coming soon, as well as some other features.

We appreciate your comments, critique and, sometimes, patience.

This has been resolved. I ran Windows Update and installed some new updates and upon reboot my Samba was working with Dr. Web 5 again. I have no idea exactly what the issue was, most likely something unique to my PC.

I've updated the bug report I made with Dr. Web, letting them know that issue is fixed and most likely something limited to my set up with my PC.

The engineers at Dr. Web were very responsive and worked very hard to trouble shoot this problem with me.


Dr. Web 5 is running great on my computer now.

Thanx, so for one license it is 14 euro

1. This special offer covers all Dr.Web products except bundles.
2. The discount is available only for companies and doesn’t include home users.
3. The migration discount is provided for customers of the following anti-virus
vendors: Eset, Kaspersky Lab, McAfee, Sophos, Symantec, Trend Micro.
OEM-licenses of these vendors cannot be applied for the migration programme.
4. Customers of other anti-virus vendors don’t get the discount.
5. Migrating to a one year Dr.Web license provides a 50 % discount. If migrate
to a two- or three year license the multiplier of 1 or 1.5 respectively is used
for the price of a one year license.
6. When change for Dr.Web the discount is available only for a similar solution
(the type and the number of protected objects are considered).
7. In order to get a migration discount a user needs to present his original
license or a key file or a confirmation e-mail stating the purchase of an antivirus
from another vendor and containing the registration information.
8. The migration discount is not provided if the license of another vendor expired earlier
than 30 days before applying for the discount.
9. Further renewal of migration licenses is the subject to regular renewal dis
counts.

im sure this never used to always be the case, unless ive mis-read it :/

C.S.J, previously I did read they allowed you to transfer any other valid license for a discount.

Hopefully, either Dr.Web or another solid product, gives the option of say, transferring a license with more than say 'six months left', to receive some kind of discount (eg. 30 per cent).

there's no way to set the schedule at the auto update utility of drweb. 5.0, so how long will dr.web 5.0 check for update?

Drweb checks for updates every 30 mins by default.

.. And you can change the schedule, I have it to update only when my computer has been idle for 15 minutes so the update doesn't interfere if I'm playing games or so. Still gets updated many times per day.

Anyone have any ideas on how I can make Dr.Web's HTTP scanner load streaming video faster? Most AV that use an HTTP scanner cause a slight delay when viewing streaming video (on my computer)... For some reason it seems like it takes ages for video to load with Dr.Web's HTTP scanner.
